“…As illustrated in Figure 1, the reactor employs vertical pressure tubes and heavy water moderation, which provides a reliable heat sink in case primary cooling is lost. Addition information about the HWGTR and its power cycle can be found in [6].…”

Argonne National Laboratory has been developing the Plant Dynamics Code (PDC) for design and transient analysis of supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) Brayton cycles. In previous analyses with PDC, only indirect sCO2 cycles, where the heat is being added through a heat exchanger, such as sodium-to-CO2 HX, were analyzed. Under the U.S. Department of Energy Technology Commercialization Fund (TCF), Argonne cooperated with TerraPower to bring the Plant Dynamics Code to commercial market. The main focus of the TCF project is to extend the application base and the code usability by developing the capabilities to be able to simulate reactor systems with direct sCO2 cycles.
